Around this time last offseason, the fine folks at CBS Sports threw together their annual rankings of the NFL’s best offensive triplets which usually are made up of the team’s quarterback, running back, and their top pass-catcher. That usually means the team’s best wide receiver, but in the case of the Chiefs, it’s their All-World tight end.
Heading into the 2022 season, the Chargers were actually given the honor of employing the league’s top trio in Justin Herbert, Austin Ekeler, and Keenan Allen. Those players still make up the trio for the Bolts, but after a down year from two of the three members, they’ve fallen down to fifth in this year’s rankings.
